You know I love staying on top of the coolest new trends in art and tech. Whether it’s a robot that can draw my picture or a huge photo mosaic on a jumbotron, if it’s creative, I’m all in! But nothing has grabbed my attention (and imagination) like the recent boom in generative Ai.

I was scrolling through Twitter the other day and saw many people tweeting about an online photo mosaic sponsored by SpaceX and NASA! With so many students not being able to celebrate graduation this year, SpaceX is creating a mosaic of graduates to send to space! How cool is that?!

I was scrolling Reddit and came across this unbelievable photo mosaic made out of 13,000 dice! This impressive homemade project was made by hand, by one person on his living room floor!

Back in January, I shared a post on Garment Mosaics created by a talented artist, Noah Scalin. I have revisited his site many times since and each new piece I see, I love more than the one before.

I need to put aside our photo mosaic talk for this post because this is just an amazing story that needs to be shared. My New York readers might know him from his work on sidewalks, stoops, and planters; the Mosaic Man’s work is widely acclaimed. After serving in Vietnam, Jim Power briefly worked in construction and lived on the streets, making his first mosaic pole in 1988. He was then coined Mosaic Man by the Village Voice. He’s since designed seven mosaic light poles for his Astor Place community.
